"A fat cook sleeps by the kitchen fire in an arm-chair with her feet high up on the chimney-piece. She holds a glass filled from a bottle of 'Cherry Bounce' at her elbow. Close beside her a comely plump kitchen-maid is also asleep, with her arm round the neck of a negro footman who sleeps on her shoulder. All have beatific smiles. Before the fire a cat sleeps on the back of a dog. Cooking utensils stand on the chimney-piece and hang from the wall; dishes on a dresser complete a crowded interior."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state.

"A handsome young courtesan sits by the fire, her legs crossed indecorously, her breast bare; she has a decanter at her elbow, and holds a glass of wine.

"Five elderly women of fashion attend an altar of Love in a temple whose walls are wreathed with roses. The fat Mrs. Hobart, in profile to the right, pours incense on the flames of the altar; in her right hand is an open book, 'Ninon'. Behind her (left) Lady Archer, with the nose of a bird of prey, leads a lamb garlanded with roses; she guides the animal with a riding-whip. Miss Jefferies walks beside Lady Archer holding a basket of flowers. On the extreme left Lady Mount-Edgcumb, aged and bent, holds a dove in each hand. On the right of the altar Lady Cecilia Johnstone plays a lyre. The altar is decorated with rams' heads, a heart, arrows, and roses. A sculptured group of the three Graces stands in an alcove in the wall above the altar. In the background (left) is a mountain peak, Parnassus, on which sits a tiny figure of Apollo, playing a fiddle, the sun irradiating his head."--British Museum online catalogue.

"The enormously fat Mrs. Hobart sits in profile to the left in a small armchair, her right foot on a stool, her leg exposed. She places round its grotesque girth a ribbon garter, the central part of which is stiffened by a spring. Perched on her hair is a small straw hat with a high silk crown from which a veil hangs down her back. On the wall behind her is a picture: 'Nina', a small thin man kneels before the stout and terrified Nina (who believes him to be the ghost of her lover)."--British Museum online catalogue.

"The Duke of Clarence drags his three children (left to right) in a go-cart. His waistcoat is open, a handkerchief under his hat drapes his head, perspiration pours from his forehead. The boy, an infant replica of his father, holds a pair of reins which are attached to the duke's pocket, and flourishes a whip. Beside him are a little girl hugging a dog, which hides her face except for the eyes, and a crying infant whose features, though infantine, are those of her father. The crest on the cart is a chamber-pot (cf. BMSat 7835, &c.) surmounted by a crown. From the duke's pockets project a toy battleship, a coral and bells, a toy windmill, and a doll. Mrs. Jordan, in a dress of masculine cut, walks beside the cart, intent on the part which she is studying from an open book ('The Spoil'd Child', see BMSat 7835): 'Act IIId enter Little Pickle'. A signpost (right) points (left) 'From Richmond', (right) 'To Bushy'. A sandy bank with trees forms a background."--British Museum online catalogue.
